Challenge/Battle/Alert: June Wordy - Fave Childhood storyTeam/Ninja: Team MonsterProject Geekdom (if any): Sesame Street Monsters! Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch, Grover, and even Elmo!Bonus Points: Nerdy, Super NerdyProject Name: Sesame Street Notebook CoverProject Page Link (if available):Brief Description: This is why I made the first version - so this one would be right side up. I made this one for a swap. It reminded me of one of my Favorite books, The Monster at the end of this book and I even remember an ABC book of Sesame Street (before Elmo). Those books taught me Monsters were not all bad. Project Picture:

Challenge/Battle/Alert: Randomizer: Our Ancestors Team/Ninja: Team MonsterProject Geekdom (if any): Frankenstein's MonsterBonus Points: Nerdy, Super NerdyProject Name: Frankenstein's Monster Fridge MagnetProject Page Link (if available):Brief Description: I wanted to make a Frankenstein's Monster fridge magnet for a while and tonight I had the time. I drew out Frankenstein and colored him in gray scale first with my Copics. Then I added the color on top. I think it turned out well for color considering I am still learning. And Frankenstein is a vintage/classic monster! Project Picture:

Yay for "The Monster at the end of this book"! I loved that book!!! Way way way cooler than "Another Monster at the end of this book". I seriously love Grover. I would love to go back to Sesame Place just to see him again even tho my kids are too grown for it.

Robot unicorn heavy metal attackBonus Points: nerdy, nerdy super bonus!Project Name: robot unicorn heavy metal amiProject Page Link (if available): pattern from here http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/hermione-the-unicornBrief Description: I was in the SSS31 and I offered this cute little unicorn ami, well, ghilie got one and when I asked her how she wanted it to look she said robot unicorn attack heavy metal of course, lol. I thought, what?? So I did some searching and omg! How am I going to do that?? So I got out trusty grey red heart with all intentions of using it. I went to michaels for a totally unrelated reason and they added like 3 new rows of yarn so I had to look! I found this patons metallics yarn and thought it would be perfect for a shiny unicorn! Then I found this funky yarn that looked fiery and got him done! Project Picture: I don't know if you can tell, but the yarn really is shiny!

Challenge: July FandomTeam-Who-Must-Not-Be-NamedProject Geekdom : Harry Potter!Bonus Points: SNB-Super Nerdy BonusProject Name: I Open at the CloseProject Page Link: I Open at the Close...Tiny Snitch HooplaBrief Description & Project Pics: I made this tiny hoopla for Ant Bee in the OHTPT4. Finally, the muggle mail delivered it; this snitch went on an adventure. For Fandom Fit: In the world of Harry Potter, Quidditch is a competitive sport in the wizarding world. It is extremely popular; the equivalent to Muggles' passion for football. It is not uncommon for a wizarding household to have several items in their home celebrating this sport.

I painted the outer hoop blue and adorned it snitches before adding a glossy finish.

I've been thinking about this research project... its time to declare and get it started!

Project Name: 9 Patch Musical QuiltTeam/Ninja: Team MusicBrief Description: Quilting will be a new medium for me. I've always wanted to make a quilt and I think I'm ready to delve into this after working on several afghans (comparatively similar in size) and skirts (comparatively similar in general technique). I will be using various music fabrics to create this quilt. It will be a 9 patch of some description. I haven't decided if I want it to be a disappearing 9 patch or some other kind. My timeline is start now and finish whenever it gets done. I don't really expect to finish it before school starts back in a month or so. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated from any of the fabulous quilters on here!
